The Passionate Guns of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 449 Li Shimin's Problem
Li Xiaogong and Ma Sanbao were defeated for more than 30 miles in one breath, and they didn't hold their ground until Yang Yong's men withdrew and stopped chasing them.This is a good time, even the big battalion is gone, the main general Luo Cheng has also become Yang Yong's prisoner, the defeat in this battle is really miserable.

Li Xiaogong ordered people to check the number of people, but fortunately there were not many casualties, and the two captives Yang Yuling and Princess Yujing were still in their hands. This was the comfort of General Li Maer, and it was the only place he could explain to their Highness King Qin.

Li Xiaogong ordered people to inquire about the location of Li Shimin's main force while he was rectifying his troops. He quickly reported that His Royal Highness King Qin's troops were only sixty miles away. Hearing this, the second general Li and Ma felt safe. .

In the evening of the same day, Li Shimin's men joined forces with Li Xiaogong's more than 2 horsemen.

Li Xiaogong and Ma Sanbao reported to Li Shimin the battle situation in these few days in detail, although Li Shimin, who had already received the news of Li Xiuning and Luo Cheng's defeat in advance, was still extremely shocked.

Victory and defeat are commonplace for military strategists. Tens of thousands of horses were injured and several cities were lost. This is nothing to Li Shimin, but Li Xiuning, Luo Song and Luo Cheng became Yang Yong's captives one after another. serious.Because the identities and status of these three people are very different, this matter is too big, and as the King of Qin, he did not dare to make up his own mind. After discussing with his advisers, he drew up a memorial and sent someone to Bingzhou on a flying horse to let him Father Emperor Tang Gaozu Li Yuan decided.

Then Li Shimin's heart was in a mess, the situation in front of him was too passive, Tang Jun had never fought such a defeat.Especially Li Shimin, since he joined the army, he has been invincible all the way, invincible, invincible, and invincible wherever he goes. Settled.It can be said that wherever Li Shimin goes, the halo of success and victory shines there.But unexpectedly, such a difficult problem would arise for him before the match against Yang Yong. This is undoubtedly a severe test for him.

Li Shimin sighed, and thought to himself, the second sister is too self-righteous, she wanted to listen to her younger brother, how could she be defeated today, how could she be humiliated by being captured?Fortunately, Li Xiaogong and Ma Sanbao designed and captured Yang Yong's two women, otherwise, he really didn't know what to do.And Luo Cheng, who is self-willed and arrogant, really shouldn't be handed over to him.Luo Song's martial arts skills are not inferior to his. In terms of leading troops to fight, he is much more stable than Luo Cheng. Even Luo Song has become a prisoner of Yang Yong. It is not surprising that Luo Cheng has such an end. It seems that he has miscalculated on this point. .

But how to save these three people?I believe that the royal father will not have any better way, only to change the general.However, with two for three, what if Yang Yong refuses to agree?Yang Yong has a romantic nature, he does things unrestrainedly, he has a lot of women, does he care about two women?
Thinking of this, Li Shimin didn't have the heart to enter the army anymore. About 6 miles away from Linyi City, he ordered to set up camp.

There was no army for two days in a row. In these two days, Li Shimin didn't even have a taste for food, and his sleep became a problem. At night, Li Shimin took a few mouthfuls and ordered people to remove the fine wine and jade feast. up.Then, Li Shimin ordered people to invite Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Xiaogong, and Changsun Wuji, the four most powerful confidants, to his tent to discuss the military situation.

Before the five of them started to discuss, Zhao Wang Li Yuanba of the Western Mansion came in from the outside with Youyan Wang Luo Yi and Han Dong Wang Liu Heitao. Counting him bluffing loudly, because he is not articulate, he stutters a little bit, and when he is anxious, he stutters even more fiercely.

"Second...Second Brother, it's been two...Two days, the soldiers should rest...have a good rest. Is there any good business...to discuss? If you want me to tell you, I will go to the city tonight to scold you Cursing and cursing, if he, Yang Yong, shrinks his head like a turtle, we will attack at night... the city, and after the city is broken, we will kill him...the chicken and the dog will not be left behind!" Li Yuanba blushed and his neck was thick. I can hardly catch my breath.

Luo Yi heard that his two sons were all captured by Yang Yong, and their life and death were uncertain. These two days, he was also very anxious. On the first day, he thought that the Tang army had come from afar, but on the second day, he still didn't enter the army. He couldn't sit still. Cai asked to fight: "Your Highness, Luo is not talented, and he is willing to take the lead. Linyi is a small town, a tiny place, and this king brought Yanyun Eighteen Horsemen to level it overnight!"

Liu Heitai also yelled: "Your Highness, this king and Yang Yong are incompatible, please give me a team, Your Highness, this king will fight Yang Yong to the death!"

Li Shimin waved his hands as the three of them: "Three, don't be impatient. If you don't charge now, you can solve the problem. The princess and the two sons of the Luo family have become Yang Yong's captives, and Yang Yong's two women have become our hands." If this problem is not resolved, this battle cannot be fought. Before the imperial father's order comes, let's discuss what to do first, and you should go back to the camp to rest and wait for the order."

Although Luo Yi and Liu Heita were impatient, but Li Shimin's words were military orders, they had no choice but to salute and leave.

Just when the two arrived at the door of the tent, Li Shimin said again: "Brother Wang, please rest assured, the two generals Luo Song and Luo Cheng will definitely not be in danger of their lives, unless Yang Yong doesn't want his two concubines anymore. This palace will arrange a negotiation as soon as possible, if it goes well, you have a chance to seek revenge from Yang Yong."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for planning. Xiao Wang will leave." The two saluted and left.

Li Yuanba is different from the two of them. He and Li Shimin are brothers of the same mother and compatriot. He simply stayed in Li Shimin's big tent, blinking his small black eyes, and stood by the side listening to their discussion of military affairs. Li Shimin didn't rush away either. he goes.

After the calm in the tent was restored, Li Shimin asked the four of them what to do in front of them.

The four of them unanimously pointed out that in order to rescue the three people safely, there is no other way than negotiating with Yang Yong and changing generals.

Li Shimin frowned and said: "This palace has also thought of it, but you know Yang Yong's character, he is romantic, and he does things unruly. His women must be carried by carts and boats. There are only five famous wives. Wen Youwen, Wu Youwu, all of them are as beautiful as flowers, how much do two women weigh in his mind? Two for three, what should he do if he agrees to us?"

Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji, and Li Xiaogong fell silent after hearing Li Shimin's words, because Li Shimin's worries were not unreasonable.

Du Ruhui thought for a while and said, "Then two for two, and if it's really impossible, two for one. He only needs to add conditions, and as long as we can do it, we will agree to him. No matter what, we must first rescue the princess. The princess is a golden branch and a jade leaf." , There must be absolutely no mistakes, otherwise we will not be able to do business in front of His Majesty. As for us civil servants and generals, if we die on the battlefield or be beheaded in prison, it is an honor to die."

Li Shimin shook his head after hearing this, and this was the first time he shook his head at Du Ruhui's words, not because Du Ruhui's words were not good, but because Du Ruhui's words were right in Li Shimin's heart.But why did Li Shimin shake his head?It turned out that at this time, Li Shimin was thinking about a deeper problem.
